The National Monuments Service's description
Close to S bank of stream (c. 9m from stream) is an artifically raised area (H c. 1.4m), most of which is covered by dense thorn bushes so that its exact form was not discernable. According to local information this is known as 'a Fort' as is the nearby moated site (LI037-027----).
